Rajat Parr is one of the most famous wine makers in the world. Often referred to as (well, by us) as the Patron Saint of Somms, he went from being one of America’s for most servers to being a wine maker, and he has a serious talent (though his wine making partner Sashi Moorman deserves equal credit). Most famous for his famous Sandhi, Evening Land and Domaine de la Cote labels, but he has another few extraordinary projects at work. Scythian Wine Company label for example, aims to highlight the nearly lost pre-prohibition viticultural heritage of Los Angeles.
This 6er demonstrates the full spectrum! Cucamonga Revolution White and Red are from his Scythian Wine Company label, the white is made from Palomino, the variety behind Sherry, while the red is Zinfandel, Grenache and Palomino White! These re-drew the map and showed his expertise beyond Pinot & Chardonnay, though he is AMAZING with these varieties! His most famous label, Sandhi deals exclusively with PInot and Chardonnay and the Central Coast Chardonnay and Santa Rita Hills Pinot Noir are terrific examples. Up in Oregon, his Evening Land labels also deal with these expressions, Seven Seas Chardonnay and Eola Hills Amity Pinot will make you swoon.
